Editorial Reviews

Review
"A new edited volume updating the state of primatology is long overdue. . . .Chapters by experts always bring the science closer to the undergraduate. This text would solve our teaching needs."--Patricia Wright, State University of New York, Stony Brook

"The list of contributing authors looks like an A-list of seasoned and excellent young investigators. I like the comparative aspect (the families of primates sections) and then the more general topics section--this would make a great book for any number of courses I would teach."--Deborah Overdorff, University of Texas, Austin
